It's a tough gig.
It's a tough gig.
I watch SNL and I honestly can’t remember this dude. Maybe he should have listened to David Spade and Dana Carvey podcast. They talk about how hard it is on SNL.
We've known this about the show more or less from the beginning. It fluctuates but, even at its best, it's bad.
He's not very good. But Jane Wickline is far, far worse.
He was never a full cast member until this past season, and he only appeared in small parts. He most likely was cut for next season to bring in new talent.
Tja, Comedy ist wie ein schwieriges Kind, das man nicht loswird.
It probably needs to be tough. Comedy is not easy, most burn out.
That sucks! This was the best crew in a long time!!
That headline is not depicting what he said.
They didn’t know how to utilize Gilbert Gottfried on SNL, that show can be very clueless I guess it’s because they expect you to produce your own material, and he was actually pretty lazy 😁
Devon Walker always felt like "what if Pete Davidson smiled more and was happier?"
I understand him. Probably got tired of being called the Black Pete Davidson...
So tough...death is easy, comedy is hard...poor thing.
SNL could do several seasons of “where are they now”
He was on SNL? … never seen him before.
He was basically the black Pete Davidson who smiled way too much. It kind of took you out of the skit sometimes. I think he used to do an impression of Michael Strahan sometimes.
Larry David and Laurie Metcalf had little success on SNL but went on to big things. Who knows how things will turn out for him.
and julie louis dreyfus
Comedy's a tough job, that's for sure...
3 seasons? What a lil pussy.
SNL should have Elon or Trump or some other Nazi back on. Unfunny SNL sucks.
Who?
He'll miss it after a few months.
Interesting. They hide the dysfunction well if it’s true. But you hear this complaint a lot about SNL.
I watch SNL every week and literally never seen him in my life. He must be a coffee retriever.
I have been noticing an onslaught of profiles that use the derogatory behavior of twitter trolls in a different direction and pretense that they are not far right or the underbelly
I mute, block them immediately and I hope it doesn’t escalate further on BlueSky.
You mean the Never Democrat Berniecrat Fauxgressive Far-Leftists? They're like that even on Facebook. They're literally as bad as MAGA, if not worse.
Besides propaganda and rage bating, I can’t imagine why one joins a club where they know they are not wanted. And then proceeds to spew stump they know the club isn’t interested in hearing.
SNL was a resistance movement in the early years. Educated audiences and viewers. This version misses the mission.
Please clarify. I’m curious.
you have to be able to write your own skits to get on there, if you just sit back and do whatever skits they decide to put you in, you are not going to get much. If you watch the SNL documentaries on Peacock they talk about that very thing
Good riddance. He sucked anyway.
Probably mutual. I haven't watched SNL in years, but the long timers are usually pretty stingy with who gets screen time. They don't want their spotlight stolen, after all. If he was upstaging others they'd act just like so many in the past. I think it started with the way Jane Curtain was treated.
Sounds like a disgruntled fired employee to me. You can't burn a bridge that has already been burned.
Shocking that a bunch of hugely talented theater nerds and comedians might be prima donna drama queens
It just sounds like he dident want to work. Bro your in the big leagues, ZERO time off dumbass. You ON or your gone. Someone else is salavating for that position.
You have to have range to excel on SNL. This guy didn't have that.
....... for three years?
It’s George Takei commenting on a challenging situation or role, likely with a humorous or sympathetic tone, acknowledging the difficulty of someone’s job or experience.
Oh no. This is the second member of this current ensemble, that's leaving. They're all so talented. I. didn't realize how toxic it was there
Bit of a misleading headline. He said it SOMETIMES can be toxic. Exact quote: “Me and the show did three years together, and sometimes it was really cool. Sometimes it was toxic as hell. But we did what we made the most of what it was, even amidst all the dysfunction. We made a f–ked-up lil family.”
